Outlook works, Outlook Express doesn't
After restoring my computer, I am able to use Outlook to send and receive
emails okay. But Outlook Express seems to be timing out or hanging there
and I can't get the emails. I have Panda virus protection software on the
computer and even tried removing that, but it didn't work. I would prefer
to use Outlook Express instead of Outlook. Anybody know how?

Anyone know of a way to switch a window to explorer view after it's
been opened as folder view?
Example: Open My Computer. Go to C Drive then to Program Files. Now
you want to switch this window to look the same as if you had browsed

Installation on more than one home computer
I was able to install Windows 2000 on multiple home computers. I installed XP Media Center Edition on one of my computers and it keeps prompting me to officially register. It says I have X number of days to register. I am wondering whether I will be able to load it on other computers, or if Microsoft limits the installation. Does anyone out there know? Thanks....

Uploading digital photos from camera stopped working
We just upgraded our computers from Win2K to WinXP. I have a Nikon
CoolPix S3. On Win2K, I used to put the camera in the cradle and plug

etc.). From there, I could copy the photos wherever I needed.
When we first got the new computers, I plugged the camera in and I got
some "new hardware" wizard. I think I selected "show a window...
